Cork Pine Tree Crochet Patterns

‘Tis the season to have evergreens on the brain! I was inspired by these Cone Christmas Trees from Petals to Picots to make my own model-sized crochet evergreens while using up some of the wine corks in my stash. Add embellishments to the trees to make them into decorated Christmas trees, or leave them plain for a serene winter forest look.

What’s a cork pine tree if there’s no one there to hear them rustle in the breeze, right? So, there’s Frodo and Mr. Samwise, to give some scale to this project.

Stubby Wine Cork Tree

Round 3: Work *2 sc in next stitch, then 1 sc in next stitch*. Repeat from * twice. (9 stitches)

Round 4: Work 1 sc in each stitch around. (9 stitches)

Round 5: Work *2 sc in next stitch, then 1 sc in next 2 stitches*. Repeat from * twice. (12 stitches)

Round 6: Work 1 sc in each stitch around. (12 stitches)

Round 7: Work *2 sc in next stitch, then 1 sc in next 5 stitches*. Repeat from * once. (14 stitches)

Round 8 -12: Work 1 sc in each stitch around. (14 stitches)

Fasten off, weave in ends.

Assembly

These patterns should fit the corks fairly snuggly, but it will depend on your gauge. You can also optionally stuff the top part of the tree, and/or glue the cork inside the tree to secure the crochet piece in place. There’s no right or wrong answer here, just cuteness!

Oh my gosh I LOVE this!!!!!! I am seriously going to make some of these this week. I have lots of wine corks lying around (oops….) , and I have been looking for a good ornament idea 🙂 Thanks!! I’ll make sure to share with you once I’m done.

I have TONS of wine corks laying around, but they aren’t all mine. I got most of them from a restaurant :-). And yes! Ornaments! That occurred to me at some point, but then I got distracted by the LEGO people. Heading off now to make some ornaments. If you share your photos on Facebook, I’ll share them and give you a shout-out!

Hello ChiWei, I would like to know the measurement of each tree in inches. I am not a Lego user, these would be more for my great grandson. The trees are so cute. If the trees are small enough or I could alter the pattern, they might work in my daughter’s fairy village.

Hello there! This is a wonderful pattern! I’ve been looking for a great Christmas project to share with my readers. Would it be okay for me to share this on my site? I would provide a photo and a link back to your site (they will have to visit your site to view the pattern). Let me know what you think. Thank you!

Haha, thanks Lauren! We received a Shelob set for Christmas last year and the huge spider totally freaks me out, but it came with Lego people – Frodo and Samwise and Gollum. I think those are the only lego people I own right now!

I do not have any corks and they sure make very authentic-looking “tree” bottoms, but I’m thinking that I might re-purpose a lot of the zillions of brownish-color pill bottles I have left from so much care-giving (washed, of course). They’ll make great quickie “gifts” at the end of this year! After I make a few, I’ll post a photo in my blog and then come here and link to it. I’d love to make some for my Etsy shop and if I so, can I do that with your permission if I link back to your page and give you full credit for the idea/design? They are so cute…
